The family of Charleston Guthrie has invited the PGR to join them in honoring their father and hero; we are proud to be there with them.

Charleston completed a Mechanical training program at NASA after leaving the Air Force and eventually became a contractor.  Besides contracting for a living, Charleston also remodeled his own home.  When not working, he enjoyed riding his motorcycle and fishing.

Charleston is survived by his son Charles L. Guthrie (Stephanie), his daughter Lesha Guthrie and his niece Chloe Reed.​

You do not have to be a Veteran or a motorcycle rider to attend this mission. Everyone is welcome. We encourage those who do not ride to attend in your car. If this will be your first mission go to the initial staging area and you will be briefed there by the R/C (Ride Captain). Dress for motorcycle riding or dress casually if you are driving a cage (car). Please feel free to attend any portion of this mission you can. Please ride/drive safely.
 
Please remember that our mission is to stand tall and silent, and with honor and respect for our Heroes. No talking, smoking, or cell phone use during the flag line or service. Please keep radios off and engine noise to a minimum. Observe the 15 MPH speed limit. Remember, cemeteries are hallowed ground. Show respect to all who are there, not just the ones we are honoring.
